Abstract: |
A program of geoarchaeological fieldwork and deposit modelling was undertaken on the site. The results record Pleistocene Gravels overlain by inorganic alluvium across much of the site. The archaeological potential is considered relatively low, though an elevated Gravel surface towards the centre of the site warrants further inspection. The palaeoenvironmental potential is similarly limited, with the exception of two boreholes from the south of the site. Here, peat deposits were recorded of differing thickness / elevation; one horizon dating to the Neolithic, the other to the early Mesolithic. |
